Out of the Sun


Out of the Sun is the first studio album by guitarist Joey Tafolla, released in 1987 through Shrapnel Records. The album features fellow shred guitarists Paul Gilbert and Tony MacAlpine in various roles.

Critical reception

Andy Hinds at AllMusic gave Out of the Sun 1.5 stars out of five, calling it "an undistinguished set of standard neoclassical shred instrumentals" and criticizing Tafolla for copying MacAlpine too much. He remarked that Tafolla "shows plenty of talent, but not much personality here. On this early effort, Taffola hasn't found his voice yet."
